Emilia Romagna, Bardi

We're looking for an Analog Design Engineer, Principal to join our team. In this role, you will work on the design, development, and refinement of Multi-Gbps PAM4 SERDES IP. You will be part of a fast-growing analog and mixed signal R&D team, developing high speed analog integrated circuits in the latest FinFET process nodes. You will work with a cross functional design team of analog and digital designers from a wide variety of backgrounds. Our environment is best in class with a full suite of IC design tools supplemented by custom, in-house tools supported by an experienced software/CAD team.

Main Responsibilities: Investigate and contribute developing circuit architectures that address architectural bottlenecks and drive to revolutionary improvements in power, area and performance targets. Drive macro-blocks definition, design and implementation. Document design features and test plans. Consult on the overall electrical characterization of the SerDes IP product. Investigate customer silicon data for design enhancements. Propose solutions for post-silicon design updates. Key Requirements: PhD, or MSc with 15+ years of practical analog IC design experience. Degree in Electrical Engineering or similar field. Deep knowledge of transistor level circuit design, with particular focus on high-speed analog design. Solid design experience with SerDes system and blocks, like: receive equalizers, voltage/current-mode drivers, serializers, deserializers, voltage-controlled oscillator, phase mixer, delay-locked loop, phase locked loop, bandgap reference, ADC, DAC. Experience in the following aspects of the design process is considered as a plus:

Expertise of layout effects (i. e. matching, reliability, proximity effects, etc. ). Knowledgeable in Verilog-A for analog behavioral modeling. Experience with TCL, Perl, C, Python, MATLAB, or other scripting languages is a nice to have. At Synopsys, we're at the heart of the innovations that change the way we work and play. Self-driving cars, Artificial Intelligence, the cloud, 5G, and the Internet of Things are ushering in the Era of Smart Everything. If you share our passion for innovation, we want to meet you.
